Are Natural Baits or Artificial Baits The Best to Catch Striped Bass?
To be such an aggressive fish, striped bass can get pretty picky about what they eat. Cut bait and live Shad are the baits of choice for consistent catches of trophy striped bass, some days, striped bass will bite only the liveliest live baits and ignore anything less active or anything thats been frozen and artificial baits. On some occasions, artificial baits are just as effective as natural bait. We encourage anglers who use natural baits to use circle hooks.
